When the day comes that the economy starts to actually reflect the underlying fundamentals of what's going on, we are in for a disaster. May make 2008 look silly.

only a matter of time and whomever is in the white house isn't going to magically fix things

curious if anyone has explained to hidalgo what the financial impact to harris county will be if they cancel the rodeo this year as well as the offshore trade show for a second year in a row

curious if austin has thought about the financial impact of cancelling south by southwest again. their is no insurance to replace lost tax revenue and these are one time a year events which generate a significant amount of the tax revenue for the cities and the counties who are already in tough situations

at least in 2008 these events still took place and we aren't even factoring in lawoffs

My workplace lost millions last year with the rodeos being cancelled so I can’t imagine what will happen this year not having any at all.

Was I supposed to type something here?
More blithering idiocy from our "betters" in Government.

I keep forgetting, living in the country as I do, just how deliberately misinformed and utterly cowed the City folk are to this Plague Porn. Nobody out here wears a damned face-diaper anymore, and hasn't for a couple of months. The stupid Town Mayor who ordered everybody in Town to wear a mask (while forgetting that she has no police force to enforce her diktat) back in April is on her way to wretched defeat. Good riddance.

Going back to my old town is jarring. Everyone lives in fear, hiding behind their face diaper, eyes darting around. It's sick, and I am literally ashamed of these people, behaving like panicked sheep. Of course, all they hear from the lying Media is "Wear your mask! Protect yourself!" The damned illness is past us! The peak was in April! APRIL! All of the "curves" are bottoming out, and have been since July. JULY! Oh, and in case nobody noticed, it's OCTOBER!!!!

We have, all of us, literally had a year stolen from our lives. A whole year. The Media driven panic, crazy overreaction, and continued mis-information (commonly known as lies) spread by Our Betters is insulting, if not galling.

You all should be furious at this. But, instead, I am certain that a significant number will be angry at me for pointing all this out. "Plague Denier!" "Tinfoil Hat Wearer!"

IDGAF.
